Missing Helms Deep tickets?

Waaaaaaaay back when Helms Deep first started on MGFTW (years ago) I gathered many tickets (back then they were TVs) before the map was removed. When I started playing again before this years Halloween event I still had my tickets. Now when I check my inventory they are all gone. Were they deleted?

EDIT: Ahh tim just pointed me to the thread about HD tickets. Lost the 26 tickets from yesteryear. Oh well.

 

spoke to the guy about it and here's what was said...
